OLIVIER HILLAIRE 2012 CHATEAUNEUF DU PAPE
CUVEE CLASSIQUE

eROBERT PARKER 93-95 POINTS: "Looking at his traditional cuvee, the 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape (a blend of mostly Grenache) is a thick, massive effort that got a big âwow!â in the notes. Showing spectacular aromas and flavors of raspberry, spice, licorice and Provencal herbs, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, layers of sweet tannin and fantastic mid-palate depth. Fruit loaded and a hedonistic dream, it should dish out tons of pleasure over the coming decade. Drink 2014-2023."
